MOTHERS AND GRACE IN FINDING GOOD MATES
Mothers and Grace in Finding Mates
While I have in the past praised and acknowledged the splendid work of President Barack Obama's mother in molding him into a splendid man, I dare do no less, for our First Lady, Michelle Obama's mother, who has molded her into a splendid woman!
Multiple options were available to Michelle Robinson in Chicago, where there would seem to be no shortage of men with degrees and potential.
That she chose Barack, no money-Obama, and he she, speaks to her vision to see beyond, to feel beyond his faults, into his heart and soul.
Too often, women and men make less than ideal choices in mates, some choices premature, with others being immature. Better be very sure!
That ability to see beyond and to feel beyond the present, the exterior, into the future and the interior is valuable!
I suspect strongly that their ability is acquired environmentally, culturally; not just biologically or genetically. The term is "epigenetically" for this.
The point is this: employ multiple gauges, diverse senses and intuition in the process of choosing your mate. Even at your best, it is still all grace that governs you all; indeed, us all!
